UCLA college student Jonathan Moore (Anthony Edwards) is playing a game called "Gotcha" (popular on mid-1980s college campuses as "Assassin" or "Tag"), wherein the players are all assigned a mock "hit" on another player by use of a harmless paintball gun. Moore and his apartment roommate Manolo go on a vacation to Paris, France. After touring some of Paris, in a cafe Moore meets Sasha Banicek (Linda Fiorentino), a Czechoslovakian girl. Eventually, Jonathan has intercourse with Sasha, losing his virginity.
Jonathan decides to leave Manolo (who is heading to Spain) and go with Sasha to West Berlin to spend more time with her. Jonathan believes that he is in love with Sasha. There, Jonathan and Sasha continue to have sex and even go to an Oktoberfest beer gathering. One night, Sasha tells Jonathan that she has to go to East Berlin to pick up a package. One night after arriving in East Berlin, Sasha leaves their hotel room and walks to dark street corner. There, Sasha meets a German man who tells her the location of the pickup of her package. Meanwhile, Sasha was being monitored by a Soviet agent, who was sitting in a car at a distance. During the day, Sasha tells Jonathan that if she gives him a certain message, it means that he has to leave East Berlin immediately. At a cafe, Sasha gives Jonathan a package and says that a strudel is inside. A little later, Sasha tells Jonathan to meet her at the butcher shop near their hotel. All of a sudden, a Soviet agent begins to chase after Sasha. Sasha decides to use Jonathan (who is holding her package) to unknowingly get the package over to West Berlin. Meanwhile, Sasha is taken by the Soviet agent and East German secret police.
Jonathan goes to Checkpoint Charlie to cross the heavily fortified border into West Berlin. At the East German customs search, Jonathan is stripped of his clothes and given a cavity search. Meanwhile, Sasha is stripped and searched for possible espionage evidence. Vlad arrives at the border crossing to search for Jonathan, however Jonathan passes the border safely before he can be captured. Once in West Berlin, Jonathan feels liberated by the Westernized society. In the hotel, Jonathan receives a message from Sasha to meet him at a specified location. Jonathan finds out that his hotel room was broken into and robbed of his traveler's checks. Soviet agents eventually find Jonathan in West Berlin and chase him throughout a public park. Jonathan jumps into a water canal and manages to escape from the Soviets and stumbles upon a German rock group headed for Hamburg, who offer him a ride to the airport.
The rock group successfully get Jonathan to the airport (using full-face makeup to sneak him past a checkpoint) and Jonathan finally arrives in Los Angeles Tom Bradley International Airport and to his apartment. Soon, Vlad and a band of Soviet agents arrive too in Los Angeles. Once home, Jonathan stumbles upon a film canister, which was planted by Sasha. Jonathan visits his parents and tells them what happened in Germany but they cannot believe a word of it and think Jonathan is on drugs. Jonathan decides to call the FBI then the Central Intelligence Agency for help. Jonathan returns to find his apartment broken into and looted.
The CIA officer tells Jonathan to give them the photo film canister. At the Los Angeles headquarters of the CIA, Jonathan spots Sasha who looks like she was working there. Jonathan eventually meets up with Sasha. Sasha admits that she is Cheryl Brewster, a CIA agent, originally from Pittsburgh. Out of nowhere, Vlad and his gang begin to chase Jonathan and Cheryl on the UCLA campus. Jonathan eliminates all the Soviets with a tranquilizer gun which he gets from the campus veterinary sciences building. The Soviets are arrested, the CIA agents thank Jonathan for his (indirect) help in obtaining the film, and Sasha tells him she wants to continue their relationship.
After they part, Jonathan talks to a pretty student who rebuffs him coldly. As she walks away, he aims the tranquilizer pistol and shoots her in the rear.
主讲新冠肆虐大美利坚这茬子事，苹果华为之争、霉霉恋情绯闻、弗洛伊德事件等也面面俱到影射。好莱坞啊，全美最大民主党左派大本营，众星接下此片应该也是闻出了剧本的现实讽刺意义，梅姨亲自演特朗普挖苦；大表姐也真会挑剧本，《母亲！》直指默克尔难民政策，这部则辛辣开刷当今整个病态美国。
讽刺意味极强，简直是美丽国的照妖镜，导演也是太敢写敢拍了！
President Qi（从外太空发来唁电）说彗星完好无损。小品当贺岁片拍，贺岁片当纪录片看
7分，彻头彻尾的讽刺喜剧，台上口号喊得再响亮背后也不过是虚伪和自私的利己主义，一切都成为政治角力和企业盈利的工具，他人的生死在有些人眼中已经无关重要。最后的反转来得好，人总要付出代价的。
卧槽原来世界的AV化就是今天的现实主义 政府是一回事 媒体是一回事 娱乐是一回事 个体感受也是一回事 但相同之处就是AV化 忘了还曾经有第七封印启示录这回事 即使在头上也当做奇观 最搞的是 这个过程中连批判者本人也AV化了
在疫情之前 真的以为本片就是戏谑夸张的剧本 但现在时刻发生在身边的荒唐都在提醒着 随着资本权利的游戏和迷失的人群 世界末日审判早就已经开始了 片子的剪辑很有趣 演员阵容很强大 在最后的爆炸中一切尘归尘土归土 才是一切的结局与归宿 可惜不是每个人都能看到故事的结尾
放低期待后来看感觉也还可以接受，政治讽刺的冷幽默是在的，有几处还是让我笑出声了。顺带一提的性别讽刺也有点意思，celebrate the man, blame the woman, so classic, huh? 片子是真·大牌云集，万万没想到还(又)有Chris Evans客串，这位大哥是客串上瘾了吗😂不过看到结尾内心最大的感受是：在2021年有彗星撞地球，还有这种好事？
30-6=24 对于大财阀 总统和白宫幕僚长也太高深了点
真正的悬浮就长这个样子。看似亚当麦凯又要拿出最main的一面来怼天怼地，确实，资本崇拜 职场潜规则 民粹 娱乐至死 普信男 妈宝男 红脖子批判的面面俱到，但是几乎任何方面都是极其符号化且浮于表面。因为这个故事本身设置的危机已经不同于大空头相对小影响面积和受众的金融危机，全人类的灭绝成为主线，但是展现的视角依然是如大空头般精英化，脸谱化，小格局，刻板化。他讲的每一个点都有其他的主要探讨这个议题的电影且比他讲的好很多倍，全片似众生相实际浮皮潦草。片子里的总统煽动选民说小李他们在俯视你们，但实际上 只有俯视观众的导演才能构建出这套物欲横流的悬浮精英叙事。小李的人设极度转折看似想做复杂性，实际上把导演本身的深度直男属性暴露地一览无余，反而引起不适。就这样的文本与表达，放在阴谋办公室顶多拍一集
是喜剧吗？感觉挺现实的。。。现实何尝不是这么荒诞！
耐飞独家发行的电影至今为止的NO.1。留得下来的杰作。
满屏就俩字，虚伪。左棍都是污染大户，就知道慷他人之慨。
一開始看著像喜劇，再看一看諷刺力度像黑色喜劇，再往下看這他媽是虛構現實主義啊！！！人類用樂觀包裝膽怯，用自信包裝自大，最終只能說「好死」。
否认病毒，为了官员的乌纱；夸大病毒，为了排除异己，再让中药商、物资供应的垄断者很赚一笔。科学从来都是被权力支配的，福柯早就洞察了一切。
太棒了！终于在灾难片里看到地球毁灭了。加一星。
硬核好莱坞左派拍出来的两年目睹之怪现状，充斥着真挚的傲慢和愤怒。虽然还是挺好看的，但问题就是战斗性和幽默感本来就不太兼容。
一个 Matrix Resurrections 可怜至极 一个 Don't Look Up 可笑至极 如果你非要做成廉价综艺 那么你所有的讽刺就完全是无能闹剧 软烂口水 且内里核心又是首鼠两端的行为
格局小喽。
4.5 虚无狂欢后褪去畏恐不安的落寞焦躁，我们早已拥有了一切—即主体发生的情感。终于也轮到好莱坞(美国)去完成对自身虚无演绎的质疑了吗？麦凯精通的荒诞喜剧类型精准演绎了这个濒临毁灭的世界无法直视真实存在的遮羞，诙谐揭示了众人麻痹自我娱乐至死的毒药。跟随泛庸的互联网悄然走入后媒介历程的形态变化，聒噪扁平的信息流之下有着令人惊愕的自反，彻底超水平发挥。大爆炸式的当代人类通史新编，对当下荒谬动乱时期中可能发生或者已经发生的社会政治、资本流通、权力斗争通过灾难片载体全部(暗讽)回溯了一遍，受流文化媒介影响的存在主义危机更是警醒着人类社群中真正危机的存在，而这个伴随华丽燃烧无谓反抗的过程就是人类实现浪漫的过程，也是宇宙唯一证实存在可被感知的事物。与所有自我毁灭相比，悬挂于空的彗星才是最微不足道的那个。
对时政的嘲讽度拉满！很多以前觉得纯夸张的情节在后疫情时代都变成了现实批判，这个观感本身就很讽刺了🙂
